Just spotted your comment about the Misti Sam. It's a shame it doesn't work with wood mounted stamps isn't it - wood mounted are my first love and I still buy them. Can't understand why folk actually make a bit thing out of unmounting their wooden stamps - seems crazy! The Humming Bird is wood mounted - somehow they always seem to give a more reliable and better impression than unmounted or polymer stamps. Probably why the Misti was developed in the first place :)!!
